Is it true that whoever was struck by Ali's sword is destined for Hellfire, and that whoever saw the hair of the Mother of the Believers, Aisha, is also destined for Hellfire?

Entering the Fire and being saved from it are matters of the Unseen, the knowledge of which depends on an Islamic legal proof. There is no proof that anyone killed by Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) with his sword is considered among the people of the Fire. These sayings may be exaggerations and fabrications. Similarly, nothing has been reported regarding the hair of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her). It is well-known that looking at the hair of a non- woman is forbidden, and the sanctity of the Mothers of the Believers is even greater.
